The mower may include a biasing member to bias the rotatable mower member, and the biasing member may include a spring to bias the rotatable mower member. The mower may include a hitch connecting member to connect to the frame member, and mower may include a long arm member to connect to the rotatable mower member. The long arm member may be connected to a movable arm member to move the rotatable mower member, and the long arm member may be connected to a traverse arm member. The rotatable mower member may include a round shaft member to allow the rotatable mower member to move in and out and under the fence and around the obstacle, and the rotatable mower member may include a hydraulic mower. The rotatable mower member may include a blade, and the rotatable mower member may include a blade mounting plate member to mount the blade.
Description
- The present invention relates to a device for mowing grass including a fence mower to be able to mow around at least three sides of a fence and under the fence.
- Tractors are often employed with many accessory implements, such as mowers, tillers, rakes, feeders, plows, grapples, post-hole diggers, post drivers, drillers, cultivators, spray booms, dozer blades, and similar apparatuses.
- In the case of mowers, many improvements are designed to embrace the situation of mowing around and close to fences, fence posts, guardrails, and other vertical objects that impair clear pathway mowing whether for highway right-of-ways, parks, commercial properties, or general agriculture uses. The efficiency improvement in not having to employ a separate hand controlled trimmer is obvious.
- Often a system to handle mowing around a fence with posts is designed to mow simultaneously on both sides of the fence. That is, some mechanical arrangement extending over the fence is provided to position two mower heads, one on each side, of the fence while the tractor moves along parallel to the fence row. This arrangement is expensive while subject to much maintenance and is difficult to control on rough ground, such as is common along roadways.
- Various hitch assemblies are employed to serve as an intermediate mechanism between the tractor and the operating implement. Often these hitches utilize the power takeoff, usually referred to as the PTO, system of the tractor, sometimes directly and sometimes to operate a transitional power unit, such as a hydraulic system or an electrical generator. For instance, mowers often use belt-driven assemblies coming directly from the PTO, but they also are designed with hydraulic or electrical motors to drive the mower blades and these systems are powered by the tractor in some manner. However an alternate arrangement is to provide a trailer system containing a separate engine to drive the implement.
- Another important situation occurs depending upon the ease of installing and removing a tractor hitch as well as its transition in use between several implements. Thus a general purpose or universal, versatile forward hitch is needed such as the subject invention provides.
- One difficulty in employing agriculture implements occurs when rough ground is encountered. Of course, the operator can always manually adjust operating conditions for rough ground situations, but this is time consuming and often produces unsatisfactory results. The subject invention compensates for rough ground situations as part of the hitch system which employs various applications of torsional links.

- Referring to the above list, Downey et al. disclose a conventional mower deck with a moveable in-and-out carriage positioned under a tractor so as to mow close to fences.
- Youngberg et al. disclose the use of torsional suspension bars on the tractor frame to tilt it for use on sloping terrain.
- Scarborough discloses a rotary lawn mower having an arm with a moveable trimming attachment so as to mow close to fences.
- Whatley discloses a mower using a horizontal boom with a pivotal mower head attached so as to mow close to fences and hill sides. The mower head has three separate cutting heads arranged around a central shaft which rotates only by impacting a fence post.
- DeWitt et al. disclose a trailer mounted mower with multiple mower heads. One set of moveable mower heads extends on the outside of a fence row. Another moveable mower head is employed on the inside of the fence row.
- Old discloses a three-point hitch to operate an implement on the front of a tractor and is designed to minimize side-to-side sway of the tractor.
- Burrough et al. disclose a torsional spring suspension for a sickle-bar mower designed to raise it for transport.
- Hintze, Jr. discloses a four element sickle-bar cutting mower having the ability to rotate only when impacted so as to partly curl around a fence post.
- Jones discloses a system consisting of a versatile hitch attached to a tractor which positions a ground-based implement, such as a mower, in front or to either side of the tractor. The hitch cushions or dampens movement using a torsional component over rough ground by the tractor allowing the implement to traverse a near parallel ground direction. The mower design mows either normally over open ground or in restricted locations, such as around fences supported by posts.
- A mower for cutting grass and which is attached to a vehicle may include a mounting frame member for connecting to the vehicle, a rotatable mowing member to rotate behind a vertical obstacle, a swingarm member to connect to the mounting frame member and the rotatable mowing member.
